The Overflowing Sweatshirt Closet MMP

Blurf.

Up, and today is payday so we’re at Huddle House. I’ve ordered the country fried steak. Ekemom is having the waffle platter. After this, it’s to Wally World for groceries and prescriptions, and to get rent money. We’ll swing back home to drop off the groceries and rent money, and back out to get the car repaired. Busy day today.

Gordie has had his long walk, now time for the next pot of coffee and some brunch.

: juggles badgers :

Was an execution dream like you had about me?:dubious::wink:

The solution is to teach him the ASL for “SHUT UP, DAMMIT!” :smiley:

Reminds me of 17th century Japanese style art.

More coffee is always good. And so is a dirty mind.

Flipper, :eek: Wally World :eek: the day before Thanksgiving? My prayers go with you.

Can’t believe how much I’ve gotten done! I ran errands (no :eek:Wally*World:eek: though), made up the dressin’, and made a batch of deviled aigs, cause, well, deviled aigs! Go Me!

hmmmmm - deviled eggs - good idea. Except I’d need to get eggs. Not sure I want to go to the grocery store the day before Thanksgiving, and I need the eggs I have for punkin pie. So, no deviled eggs for us.

LUNCH TIME!!!

I’ve run out of work and I talked to the boss. Still waiting 2 hours later. Guess I need to start brining books in again.

You win.

**rosie **- it wasn’t much of a win - I kept waking up feeling somewhat disturbed. <shudder>

Howdy all from Irk. I am out of here in another 50 minutes. Our CO did give 59 minutes but our director stopped letting us have them years ago because the same ones kept leaving early and it was not fair to everyone. As a supervisor I have the ability to give my folks 59 at anytime but rarely do. We are closed tomorrow and only open a half day on Firday so that is their little reward. When I leave here today I will be off until Moanday.

I just want all my Mumper friends to know i am Thankful for all of you!:slight_smile:

So you came here to hang out with the rest of us disturbed people?:p;):smiley:

I make a quick run to Kroger. $50 later, I came home with bacon, basil ,pesto, bruchetta, and a six pack of Hoppy Ki Yay, plus the actual stuff on my list.

I took a little nap, slept through all the banging, clashing, and drilling. The smell woke me up, ugh - I don’t know what they are using down there but it sure stinks.
I think my nap calmed the dog down, I guess he figured if I could sleep through it he can too.

I dreamed about deviled eggs last night. The looked so yummy but they had been sitting out too long so I didn’t eat them. I had cake instead.

You’re right Doggio, it does have a bit of a Japanese feel to it - pure American though.

I have to find out how to cite photographs that you take yourself. Or rather he does but I’ll help him with that because so far neither of us can find anything. I think, but not sure, we just have to cite mylastname, myfirstname. “Name of Photograph.” 2015. Jpeg. I don’t think he has to reference the name of the painting or the museum.
Maybe he can ask his English professor.
I take that back, maybe he does. I don’t know, is he citing the painting or the picture?

The Princess was not amused by the servant ignoring a pre-sunrise demand for breakfast service. Too bad for her. :slight_smile: She did get fed, when I got up (she has dry food down at all times, she just wanted that breakfast serving of canned).

I do need to do some tidy-up of the mini-cave, since someone’s coming over for a little while in a couple of hours (church acquaintance), and do have one bit of homework due today. Other than that, SLOTH MODE!!! Sure, I’ll be doing some cooking later, but for once, tasks are for the most part on the “when I bloody well feel like it” system rather than the “OMG, when do I have time to wedge this one in?” plan.

Planning to avoid stores until roughly Monday if it’s at all humanly possible.

Furnace guys are almost done. Just moving the emergency cutoff from the bottom of the stairs to the top. Which is where is should have been from the get go.
Sah-son has been instructed on how things work and how to change the filter. Papers are signed, survey is filled out - I feel so on top of things.
We get three additional filters with the furnace, s I have a bit before I have to order some. I can’t use the ones I just bought.

I did some last minute tidyin’ up of da cave. I also got out and washed the fancy eatin’ plates and drinkin’ glasses. My fancy eatin’ plates are iron stone rather than china but they’re purty. The pattern is called “Castles of England”. Thus (duh!) they have castles on 'em. The glasses are actually crystal cause I’m all classy like that. No silver service, so everyone will have to make do with the fancy flat ware, which is nice also.

I took some shredded <snerk> butt! <snerk> outta da freezer and it’s warmin’ up in the slow cooker. I made some slaw and will do some oven fries. That should make for a good dindin. Simple, but tasty, just the way I like my men.

sari yay for new furnace!

doggio I’ve had that IPA before. NUMMY!

We’ve returned home from all our running around. The guy at the car repair place charged us $11 more than he should have (he typed $55 instead of $44), so we get a credit for when the next damn thing inevitably breaks. Meanwhile we’ve got a full fridge and a full freezer, and we’ll have sandwiches tonight for dindin, since Huddle House was the big meal of the day.

There was practically no traffic coming home, but I stopped to drive thru the car wash, so the car’s clean. And we’re going to Kevin’s for supper - **FCD **lurves their fried chickie and I enjoy their shrimp. Plus no cooking or cleaning up after, so there’s another win! :smiley:

I’s hongree - dunno when we’ll go, but I hope it’s soon.

That’s a good idea. It’s going to be a nightmare!

SPEAKING OF NIGHTMARES. That’s one example where I’d be happy to get up in the morning!


Couldn’t sleep this morning, so I’m up. We’re moving into the new place this weekend, but I HATE packing. I’m the procrastination Queen.

Bacon-flavored Ritz are good!

Considering McDonald’s tonight, since when I cook, I wind up with leftovers, and my fridge is quite full enough at the moment, TYVM. I’d be thinking carne asada nachos, but my husband doesn’t care for the place I get those from. Once he’s home from work, we’ll figure out tonight’s calories.

I’m going to have a BLT for dinner. I came home early from irk and had a nap. Just waking up.

Dindin was nummy. OYKW is preparin’ him a bath and I’m here chillin’. All is well. Except that I saw a huge flock of buzzards out circlin’ da hood just before sunset. A cool, but quite unsettlin’ site.

Made it up to brother’s with no problem, filled the gas tank in Clarksville, TN and the belly in Paducah, Kentucky and drove the rest with moderate traffic and lots of cops in Illinois. Arrived to find their furnace is on the fritz, too (it’s contagious, Sari!), the repairman is due anytime. Not to cold yet, and the body heat of three bassets and a Mastiff help keep the temperature moderate.

Depressed. The cashier at Ryan’s Buffet took my order and immediately rang me up as a senior citizen! Yeah, guess I am, but she could have at least asked! Maybe I am getting old…

Otherwise all is well.
